Might as well just give up on propositions honestly. Work to abolish them and condemn them at every opportunity as just another way for the bourgeoisie to get their way in the same way their ownership of newspapers gives them more free speech than anyone else.

Simple as that. Because none of the good ones ever come to pass. We're constantly having to fend off craftily worded bad ones and they've passed a lot of awful things via proposition that have locked us into less and less choices and ability to change things for the better.

We seem to have also passed a regressive tax on the lowest earners by raising the sales tax in LA even higher above 10% which hits the working poor much more than millionaires, billionaires, and corporations as well as wealthy homeowners who should be the ones paying for fire services. What the fuck is wrong with the people around me!? I love paying more taxes so the evil defense corporations and homeowning NIMBYs can pay less.

Any faith I had in propositions has been shattered by this, the rejected public banking LA proposition some years ago and so on.

Fuck California. Fuck California liberals. Fuck Democrats. Fuck the proposition system. It cannot work under bourgeois freedom of the press to propagandize and they will just use it time and again to get people to vote to build the jail cell and noose within it into which the proletariat's neck is placed.

Have the California proletariat tried not be fucking knobs? Have they tried not having aspirations of being rich and glamorous like those celebrities on TV they idolize and accepting their class? No.

This state is full of NIMBY rich homeowners fascists sitting terrified of the spread of too many non-whites into their area, tech worker fascists, defense-intelligence-industrial complex employee fascists, and so on.

It's deeply reactionary and I'm furious at anyone pretending otherwise. The material conditions for too many people benefit from fucking over the lowest rungs of society, from the empire's imperialism, from techno-fascism, and from private property forming a cornerstone of self-value and financial stability.
